The Hedonist Sword God - Chapter 382

Jian Shen was sure that when the red and blue colour met, some beautiful colour was destined to form. However, it wasn’t just Jian Shen’s sense as a cultivator which was screaming and telling him to not let such a thing happen.

The dao ring itself was shaking non-stop as the four colours approached each other and looked like they’d meet and start mixing together at any moment.

“Fire feels cold?”

Tilting his head in confusion, Jian Shen hastily stopped trying to comprehend Dao and made the four colours stop right where they were.

Unfortunately, this was only something which Jian Shen could do for a little while before his body which was being stimulated by the mysterious powder would force him into continuing to comprehend the four daos.

Due to this, Jian Shen began trying his best to come up with a way to not let the four colours meet at all costs.

After all even though he was not sure, Jian Shen who had seen a Dao Ring being shattered and destroyed when someone failed to maintain it properly felt that when the same thing happened to him he would lose this dao ring completely.

When that happened… Shivering from just thinking about it Jian Shen began assessing what he could do right now to avoid the fate of losing a Dao RIng forever.

Usually in this situation, not just the gamblers but those who were cultivating multiple daos at the same time had a few options to choose from.

One, focus on comprehending a single dao. To do this, Jian Shen would need to completely forget about the remaining daos and let them disappear from the dao ring and let the only dao he wanted to comprehend cover the entire ring.

But, since he let another dao cover the same ring, regardless of which dao he’d choose to keep with him, Jian Shen would always face the risk of it being deviated and corrupted since one dao laws overwrote the other one..

Two, try to maintain all of the daos and not give up on any of them while risking the entire ring being destroyed if he failed to maintain a clear mind and keep the four dao laws from corrupting with each other.

Three, let the dao laws influence each other and go to the brink of losing his understanding of them in hopes of recovering the proper understanding of them in the future when they could separate their understanding of the daos into different rings.

Regardless of what he picked though, Jian Shen’s path was destined to be thorny and hard to the extreme. In fact not just for Jian Shen, but everyone who was greedy enough to try and comprehend multiple daos at the same time would end up experiencing the same thing due to which very few of them would try to do this.

Also, even if they managed to come on top of all of this and managed to keep their understanding of the various daos and split them into different dao rings as time went by, one would need a total of nine minor dao rings of the same dao law to make one major dao ring.

Due to all of these reasons, cultivating multiple daos at the same time wasn’t encouraged or tried to do unless they had no other option.

Gritting his teeth, Jian Shen who didn’t want to waste this chance and give up on understanding four daos and only learn a single one which also possessed the rink of being corrupted at any moment chose to go with the hardest option.

He decided to let the dao laws influence each other and change his understanding of them and risk his dao rings being destroyed.

After all, even though he could try to maintain his understanding of all four daos side by side, to do this was near impossible for Jian Shen to do since he didn’t have enough understanding regarding all four of them.

Thus, once Jian Shen made up his mind everyone in the outside world saw the four colours which managed to stay away from each other come in contact and give birth to four new colours.

Luckily, the four new colours were restricted to a tiny part and the majority of the ring continued to show the four distinct shades of red, blue, yellow, and green.

Seeing this, Xiaxue frowned and was about to make a move when she stopped because a second Dao Ring suddenly appeared.

Smiling proudly, Jian Shen who could now access his second minor dao ring because the first one was filled began comprehending the dao in the same way he did before and only stopped when this dao ring was also in the same way as the previous one. Split into four colours with four different colours marking the parts they were connected to.

Opening his eyes after that because the chips inside the bowl had been exhausted, Jian Shen who could now use his third minor Dao Ring ignored the weird and surprised looks from everyone around him and joined the next round where he bet all of the dao chips he possessed, the seventeen and a half million chips, which made the jackpot for this time twenty million.

Winning the jackpot once again without any surprise, Jian Shen made the chips turn into mist and cover him as he quickly went back to comprehending the four daos.

Doing the same thing he did with his previous two Dao RIngs to the third minor Dao Ring, Jian Shen didn’t do the same for the fourth one.

Instead, using his experience he began focussing on comprehending the Dao of Fire actively and used that to find his already comprehended dao accurately among the other three minor dao rings and brought them over to the fourth ring.

When he did this, Jian Shen noticed that not only did the red colour disappear from the remaining three rings the colour which formed from it mixing with the other had also disappeared.

Next, he focussed on the Dao of Water and made the Dao of Lightning and Wind leave the ring he had decided to run pure blue in colour the very same time he was making the blue colour enter this ring from the other rings.

Like this, Jian Shen ended up with four minor rings which were all of different colours, and following the same method he continued filling the newly available minor rings until there were a total of five minor rings of each colour inside his upper dantian.

Sure doing this would not let him obtain a major Dao Ring anytime soon, but Jian Shen would rather wait patiently and let them form in the future when the time was right instead of rushing to obtain a single major Dao Ring right away when it was guaranteed to not be stable.
